In recent weeks, I've noticed that one of my Japanese Bantam hens lays fishy smelling eggs . They are practically inedible. She lives in an aviary together with the second Bantam hen. The second one lays eggs that maybe have a very faint fish smell but are still edible. I can't compare to my other hens who live in a separate run because those are not laying now for various reasons.
The two Bantams get layer feed and bits of grass clippings and vegetables. No fish, of course.
Their layer feed does not contain canola meal or rapeseed meal according to the label.
Any ideas what causes the fishiness?
Why just one hen and not the other? They are mother and daughter.
